We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won
As we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
And when that foghorn blows
I will be coming home
And when the foghorn blows
I wanna hear it
I don't have to fear it
And I wanna rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will float into the mystic
When that foghorn blows
You know I will be coming home
And when that foghorn whistle blows
I gotta hear it
I don't have to fear it
And I wanna rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will float into the mystic
Come on, girl
Too late to stop now
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won
As we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
And when that foghorn blows
I will be coming home
And when the foghorn blows
I wanna hear it
I don't have to fear it
And I wanna rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will float into the mystic
When that foghorn blows
You know I will be coming home
And when that foghorn whistle blows
I gotta hear it
I don't have to fear it
And I wanna rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will float into the mystic
Come on, girl
Too late to stop now

great songs and poetry are greater than the sum of their parts. They also launch our consciousness to expand beyond narrow and shallow fixed beliefs. "Into the mystic" give us a sense of eternity and the mystical experience of life. A metaphysical metaphor if there ever was one. \ born before the wind /younger than the sun what doe that do for your consciousness? your sense of spirit? "the bonny boat was won" _ the body perhaps? The mystics ode to Life love and death
Lyre heart (above)is also on to something. Smell the sea and feel the sky Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic the fog horn (death calling ) I don't have to fear it CAlling me home back into the fold .... the richness of Van's deep sense of spirit!- A genius ...perhaps; inspired Infinitely I wanna rock your Gypsy Soul ....Together we will flow into the mystic Tantrashaman
